1. Method of providing an image on an electronic display, characterized by:

  • (a) encoding the image as a series of data elements corresponding to coordinate locations;

    (b) storing the data elements in a first memory;

    (c) generating a first scan pattern;

    (d) selecting a scan transformation;

    (e) generating a secondary scan pattern by modulating the first scan pattern;

    (f) obtaining the data elements corresponding to the secondary scan pattern from the first memory; and

    (g) displacing the secondary scan pattern to generate representations of third dimensional image features by modulating the secondary scan pattern with predeterminted bits of said data elements to thereby provide an image signal showing displacement from the secondary scan pattern for display on a display surface.
